Whats up Everybody,
I really feel it’s necessary to deal with and dispel any confusion that has emerged following the latest terminological changes made by my regulatory physique, CICC (https://college-ic.ca/). These modifications pertain to immigration practitioners like me who’ve chosen to not interact within the refugee program and, in consequence, didn’t safe the specialised license wanted to characterize purchasers earlier than the Immigration Refugee Board (IRB).
To offer some context, there are a number of classes of immigration practitioner licenses:
Class L1 – RCIC – Conditional Follow: This license is for individuals who can’t characterize purchasers earlier than the Immigration Refugee Board (IRB) and contains new licensees post-July 1, 2022. They’re required to finish a mentoring program inside 12 months of licensing.
Class L2 – RCIC – Restricted Follow: That is my present license standing. It means I’ve opted to not characterize refugee candidates earlier than the IRB. This resolution is only private {and professional} and doesn’t have an effect on my skill to help purchasers in different immigration issues.
Class L3 – RCIC-IRB – Unrestricted Follow: Licensees on this class can characterize purchasers earlier than the IRB and have accomplished further specialised coaching and examinations.
At Alexander Immigration Companies Inc., I maintain a Class L2 RCIC – Restricted Follow license. This resolution, pushed by each private {and professional} causes, means I don’t deal with instances for refugee candidates. I perceive the time period “restricted” could increase considerations, nevertheless it particularly refers to illustration earlier than the IRB and doesn’t have an effect on my skill to help with different immigration packages.
